A method of manufacturing a circuit board assembly for a controller. The method includes providing first and second printed circuit boards wherein the first printed circuit board has a plurality of copper pads containing slots therein that correspond to a plurality of power tabs in the second printed circuit board. The power tabs are then slid into the slots and the tabs are flooded with copper. At this time the power tabs are soldered within the slots to provide an electrical connection between the first and second printed circuit boards that allows for the transfer of current between the boards of more than three amps.
